Hip pain
I have taken
prednisone
for6years and am now on 4mg. Recently I have been getting a lot of pain in hips so wonder if it's worth increasing my dosage to 5mg for a while. I also have osteoarthritis so it could be that. In the past I have had good advice from the forum can you help now thank you.

Follow-up with Rheumatologist Re: Pred Tapering
I asked if she is looking to replace the
prednisone
with methotrexate and she responded that she is looking to do just that. This is a scary endeavor and I appreciate the support received on this forum.

1.5 mgs now blood tests all over the place
I have been at 1.5 mg
prednisone
for 2 weeks and had my quarterly bloodwork done. Ana is now positive. It was negative last quarter. I am positive for Sjogrens but I don't have any symptoms. Is this because of my lower dosage?

PMR after GCA
I’ve been diagnosed with PMR after being off
Prednisone
for one year. I started on 15mg of Pred but symptoms not covered. My GP advised to go up to 20mg but two days and I am in pain. Not sure how long it takes to kick in or should I be thinking of increasing the dose.

prednisone and tinnitus treatment ?
Do any of you have experience of taking
prednisone
/ prednisolone to combat noise induced tinnitus incidents? My understanding is it can be very helpful if taken within a two week window of the event.

Flare?
A&E put her on 10mg
prednisone
. The next day she was remarkably better, with most of the pain gone. However, she still had some pain. But from the severe pain she had been experiencing before the
prednisone
, she was feeling so much better.

Side effects of methotrexate?
I've been taking
prednisone
for PMR for a year--had no clinical signs of GCA, but have had persistent very high CRP levels for several months. Finally my rheumatologist sent me to a specialist a month ago for an ultrasound of my arteries and he confirmed unequivocally that I had GCA.

Bad Back
Been off
Prednisone
for six weeks after a four year journey. Before PMR and
Prednisone
I suffered with my back but whilst on steroids I didn’t. I have had a painful and stiff back for the last week and am tempted to try my remaining Pred tablets for a couple of days.

Experiencing possible neuropathy in my trunk
I am on Lupron (first shot was in March) and abiraterone and
prednisone
daily. PSA has plummeted and doing good. Prepping for chemo in May. This past Wednesday I started feeling some discomfort in my front and back. It's hard to explain.

Dentistry.
I presently take 10mgm
Prednisone
daily in one dose. I need several dental extractions on the same side (upper jaw). Should I expect my dentist to refer me to hospital -I have been told in the past that it will need specialist care.

Does Timing of Prednisone Matter?
I started taking 15mg of
Prednisone
for PMR over 14 months ago. My tapering had been fairly successful until I reached 4.5mg.

vertigo and tapering prednisone
Could this be do to my taking from 8-7.5 mg of
prednisone
? I’m calling the doctor’s office and chiropractor office as soon as they open up to see if they can fit me in as soon as possible. I tired to find more information on the connection of vertigo and tapering but only found a few.

what color is your prednisone?
I’ve been taking
prednisone
forever. My 1 mg pills have always been white. Opened new bottle today, pills are beige and larger Than my white ones. Called pharmacist who insisted they are 1 mg, but by a different company.

Patient refuses abiraterone
From a very concerned daughter: My father was prescribed ADT, abiraterone, and
prednisone
. He started ADT earlier before the other two were added to the regimen, about one month ago.
